MLB collaborated with Virtual Dining Concepts (VDC) to launch Ballpark Bites, a menu available on food delivery apps across the United States.
It was created for fans to enjoy flavors of various stadium foods from the comfort of their home. Items from the Ballpark Bites menu can be ordered on food delivery service apps Doordash, Postmates, Uber Eats, and MLB.com/BallparkBites.
Food options include various hot dogs, Philly cheesesteak sandwich and donut holes, among more items. Ballpark Bites are made out of ghost kitchens at various IHOP restaurants. Fans can order from nearly 400 locations around the country, with more availability expected throughout the 2024 season.
“Ballpark food is truly unique to baseball and all 30 of our wonderful Clubs,” MLB executive vice president and chief marketing officer Karin Timpone said in a statement.

“We understand that not everyone has the opportunity to visit an MLB or MiLB ballpark, so we wanted to create Ballpark Bites for fans to enjoy a part of that experience from the comfort of their own home, a local park or even at work. We think this is another fun way to connect with our fans on their schedule and let them enjoy a distinctive part of our game more often.”
Food is delivered in custom packaging that include customized QR codes linking to unique promotions that change during the season. With the initial launch, QR codes on Ballpark Bites boxes offer 20% off an MLBShop.com merchandise order.
